Old Games you remember playing but can't remember the name of.

[The Alchemical Man]

I made an account for the express purpose of posting in this thread, anyway...

There was this old, online, 2d game. You were this man who could fly and there were all sorts of strange things to see in the sky, and if you flew high enough the sky turned to sea, there were all kinds of things to see in the sea and if you swam far enough you came to the shore of a very small island and the game ended. As far as I can recall it was black and white.

Any help would be appreciated.

I'm looking for a really old game for the macintosh.

You played it multiplayer on the same computer, it was from a top down perspective and as you moved around the screen a tail would follow you. If you or your opponent ran into a tail that would kill them (like tron or snake), or you could shoot each other to win. There was also different icons for different terrain, grass would slow you down, and there was water and rocks too.

I think there may have been powerups as I remember my tail getting longer somehow, but I'm not sure about that.

I'm looking for two old PC Games, I think it was Windows 95. It was an RPG, possibly with a top-down view where it starts with you in a burnt down house. I think the first item you got was some type of ring.

The other was an isometric RPG around windows 98/Me. It was some type of post-apoc game in a desert with the main character being chased. I think the main character was a girl, though not 100% sure there. I played a demo of it on an old PC Gamer demo disc. And no, it isn't Fallout.

Sorry if that isn't much help, they just both sort of popped into my brain recently as something I want to play, but I can't remember enough to figure it out on my own. Please help O Wise Ones.

I am looking for a PC game that I played about 10-11 years ago and it was several years old then, so it would have come out about 12-15 years. I remember it was a strategy type game, exploring new territory, setting up cities, discovering new technologies, etc, however the one thing that sticks out in my mind the most was that you could "farm" the ocean tiles, not just reap the benefits of the tiles for you cities, but actually create farms on the ocean tiles. It has been bugging me for the last few years and I haven't been able to find any reference to it through any search so I'm hoping that someone here will remember playing this game and will be able to help me with the name.

My mum and I don't remember much of this game but we used to play it when I was much younger and I'm pretty sure it was a few strategic/word puzzle games all in one PC disc and I remember hangman on a beach being one of the few games. But the main game we remember is where there were a bunch or list of words and there was a few tribal sort of sticks with wooden heads on the sides on the game talking or whatever, and there was this funny music that reminded me of xylophones that got quite annoying at times.

I'm sure it's an educational, strategic word puzzle game. Please if anyone has any idea of what it may be called please reply. It's really bugging us! haha
p.s. we remember the word scavengers or scavenger on it, not sure if it's the title or not.

Ok this was an arcade game back in early 90s. you are on a spaceship and fighting aliens with some sort of phaser. looked like a cheezy star trek rip off. The hero was definately a fake version of Jim Kirk. Aliens would chase you and there were transporters. may have been iso-metric view, but i could be confused with a different arcade game.

I had a sega genesis and I used to play a game that consisted in 4 characters, a robot and 3 humans, one of them was a girl. The game is similar to metal slug it has several weapons and I remember one of the stages was a dumping lot. I also remember one of the bosses was a huge witch head or something like that... If any one can help me with this one would be great...

I'm looking for this one game I used to play, I think it was either on PS1 or PS2, it was an RPG game and somewhere in the game you had to do this challenge inside the village where you had to race around track on some ladybugs I think? You were racing some fairies or something, I really don't remember much else.

Game is from an earlier operating system, DOS, Macintosh or OS's immediately after. Sometime in the 90s. Possibly a floppy disk game. I'm fairly sure it has hitmen and guns. Top down view. It had a slot machine where my dad would stick a key in his keyboard and get some sort of currency while he slept. Not sure if there were battle instances or if it was real time. Pretty sure it was a real time top down shooter.

Alright, so I'm trying to find the name of a game that was on a Playstation demo disc (I've searched, but can't find it) that had Tomb raider, Gex 2, Tomba and I can't remember any other games. The game itself was very dark, in a cave I think. You played as a guy with a pickaxe, which you would use to break crystals to collect diamond looking things and swing over chasms. I can't remember, but I think the guy said "the names Larry" when you started. Am I completely imagining this, or is it an actual game, cause I can't find it anywhere?

I would really appreciate it if someone knew what the heck this game is called.

It was on a computer (not sure if it was a PC or Mac), and it was sometime between '97 and '02. I was at my babysitter's house and she had this computer game where you were this character and you were trapped (I think) in some alien space ship. This happened after you time traveled (I think) and then once you beat that part, you were changed over to play another character. He was trapped in some castle or something. Anyways, you had an inventory and you had to find and use items in certain places to do certain things. It was an awesome game, from what I can remember, and I would love to know the name of it. Its weird that this is like the one thing I can't find on a vague google search. I have been reading these posts for 2 hours trying to find the name lol. I'm going to hope someone knows the name and can save me from more endless searching.
Thanks ahead of time!

Hello,

I've been trying to remember a game that was awesome in my childhood please help,
the game was 2D very old arround 1995 but not sure possibly DOS, it was a shooter/action game with a long hair guy with black sunglasses and different weapons...

One thing I can remember most is there were acid pools and lasers and other traps in it, and whenever you set of trap you would get killed awful ways, one that stands out most is when you fell in acid you would get dissolved to skeleton...

The game was something with toxic or bio hazard or something like that please help!
